IFIP WG 1.8:

The aims of IFIP WG 1.8 on Concurrency Theory are:

- To develop theoretical foundations of concurrency, exploring
  frontiers of existing theoretical models like process algebra
  and process calculi, so as to obtain a deeper theoretical
  understanding of concurrent and parallel systems.
- To promote and coordinate the exchange of information on
  concurrency theory, exchanging ideas, discussing open problems,
  and identifying future directions of research in the area.

The activities of this WG encompass all aspects of concurrency
theory and its applications.
